timothy 22d4023263 docs(60): record the channel-preview capability decision 2026-07-21 23:13:27 +02:00
timothyandClaude Opus 4.8 4c0f80cfe1 fix(chicorytv): test render-phase channel-switch reset; add HlsPlayer onPlaying
Two review findings on the channel preview panel (#60):
- ChannelPreviewPanel's synchronous render-phase reset (started/state/error/playToken
  on channel.id change) was reachable in prod (the channels screen keeps one panel
  mounted and swaps the channel prop) but untested. Added tests proving no auto-start
  switching into a ForcedHlsOnly channel, error clearing on switch between Available
  channels, and no playToken leak across the switch.
- PlaybackState included 'playing' but nothing ever set it. Added HlsPlayer onPlaying,
  fired from Hls.Events.MANIFEST_PARSED and the native-HLS <video> 'playing' event,
  mirroring onError's optional/stable-callback contract; ChannelPreviewPanel now wires
  it to reach 'playing'. Also fixed a latent bug hit while exercising this path:
  video.play().catch(...) assumed a Promise, but jsdom's play() returns undefined.

CreateChannelFromLineupHandler resolved every advanced override with
advanced.X ?? template.X, so null always meant INHERIT and a channel could
not drop a template-set watermark / filler / preferred language. Add an
optional typed `clear` enum list to CreateChannelFromLineupAdvancedOptions:
omitted/null still inherits (byte-stable for existing clients), a field named
in `clear` is forced to none. Set+clear of the same field is a 422.

The enum (CreateChannelFromLineupClearField) lives in ErsatzTV.Core so the
OpenAPI string-enum scan renders it as a string enum, matching every sibling
advanced-options enum. Handler resolves clearable fields once via
ResolveClearable and validates set/clear conflicts via ValidateClear;
reference validation skips existence checks for cleared (null) refs.

SPA: the shared advancedOptions model re-adds a real "None" option to the five
id selects (watermark + fillers) in both the Channel Builder and the Auto-Tune
DetailPanel, routed through a CLEAR overrides sentinel that applyOverridesToRequest
folds into advanced.clear (never leaking onto the wire as a field value). The
backend enum also covers the preferred audio/subtitle language strings for
machine clients; the SPA text inputs keep "empty = inherit" (tri-state deferred).

Docs: api-conventions.md §2, spa-conventions.md §11, decisions.md record
api.from-lineup-clear-to-none; v1.json + generated TS regenerated.

Three Low findings from the #536 clamp re-review, unreachable today (one
guarded release site) but filed against the day a second release site is added.

- §1: Release() now reads the count and CAS-decrements only when current > 0,
  so it never publishes a negative count even transiently. The prior
  decrement-first-then-clamp shape dipped to -1, which a concurrent TryAcquire
  could read as phantom room and over-admit at the limit (re-opening the #529
  QSV pool exhaustion). It records the unbalanced release synchronously on the
  offending thread rather than blaming a later innocent release.
- §3: Release() returns bool; HlsSessionWorker logs a warning on the false
  (unbalanced) return — the one in-band signal a future second release site
  would need. WorkAheadSlots stays logger-free by design.
- §2: UnbalancedReleases doc-comment corrected — it can under-count (an
  over-release while count > 0 cancels a coexisting leak and goes unrecorded);
  no false positives, but zero does not prove correctness.

Test: Release_Unbalanced_NeverPublishesNegativeCount (2M unbalanced releases vs
4 count-samplers) with a documented, verified negative control (reverting to
the decrement-first body makes readers observe the transient -1).

Adds a decisions.md entry (ffmpeg.work-ahead-slot-release-never-negative).

The decisions-guard validator enforced lifecycle metadata (key/status/since/
supersedes/superseded-by + reciprocal links) but not the **Signals:** line —
which is exactly what MemPalace's keyword recall matches on. A record without
it ingests with weak recall metadata and produces confident false-negatives
for the "MemPalace to find, file to confirm" retrieval workflow.

Add "signals" to REQUIRED_META so a migrated record with a missing or empty
**Signals:** line fails the same way a missing key does. All 114 active + 2
archive records already carry a Signals line, so this is non-breaking on the
current corpus. Archive records are intentionally out of scope (recall targets
the active corpus).

- scripts/decisions_validate.py: signals in REQUIRED_META (+ rationale comment)

Timothy asked why the kickoff handoff doc stores historical narrative when
it should be instructions. It shouldn't — its own lore section is chartered
as "STANDING workflow/orchestration rules only" with the why belonging in
docs/decisions.md. But an inventory of every bullet against the decision
corpus inverted the premise: only ~8 of ~38 were actually covered. 19 had
no record anywhere and 11 more were half-covered, so that single file was
the ONLY copy of the mandatory review rubric, the whole CI-triage
vocabulary, the build-concurrency policy, the H12 session-end audit, and
the plumbing-merge recipe. Pruning first would have destroyed them.

So the records come first. New topic file docs/decisions/workflow-process.md
carries 32 records (ci.*, process.*, testing.*) covering every NONE and
PARTIAL the inventory found, including the Gitea `?milestones=` no-op bug
whose only copy was the archived selector section this prune deletes.

Only then the prune: HARD CONSTRAINTS and the lore section become one- or
two-line rules, each citing the decision key that holds its evidence, and
the 40-line "Archived — do not follow" section is gone. 636 -> 353 lines,
with every cited key verified to resolve against the corpus.

The aggregate corpus budget is re-baselined 4800 -> 5600 with the reason in
the code: the corpus grew because knowledge MOVED into it, which is the
system working, not drift.

A session was handed docs/handoffs/chicorytv-issue-queue.md pasted out of
/Users/timothy/ersatztv while that tree was 81 commits behind, so it still
described the queue protocol #520 retired the day before (read tracker
command was ever run against that tree, so every existing "never read its
HEAD" guard was irrelevant: a stale checkout serves stale FILES, and docs
are what a kickoff depends on. Nothing broke only because selection went
through scripts/select-queue.sh.

The lore bullet on that tree already prescribed the shape of the fix for
its earlier failure modes — "a design flaw, not a discipline failure; a
check does not stay true" — so this removes the stale condition instead of
adding another check.

scripts/refresh-shared-checkout.sh fast-forwards the tree to origin/main
and reinstalls web/node_modules when the lockfile moved. It is deliberately
timid: it refuses and changes nothing when the tree is not on main, is
dirty, is ahead, or is mid-rebase/merge, and it never switches branches,
stashes or discards. A NO-OP is a normal outcome.

Uses npm ci rather than npm install — the first version used install,
which rewrote package-lock.json and left the tree dirty, i.e. the exact
state the next run refuses on, so it would have disabled itself after one
use. Asserts the tree is clean at exit.

An on-demand channel (`PlayoutMode.OnDemand`) already is the "resume where I
left off" feature: `Playout.OnDemandCheckpoint` persists the viewer's position
and `PlayoutTimeShifter.TimeShift` slides the materialized timeline forward on
tune-in so the paused item is active again. Because it rewrites `GuideStart`/
`GuideFinish` alongside `Start`/`Finish`, guide and playback freeze together —
structurally avoiding the free-running-wall-clock desync #68 was filed about.

The one gap: `TimeShift` rewrote the stored `PlayoutItem` rows but the XMLTV
guide is served from a cached fragment that only `RefreshChannelData` rebuilds,
and the tune-in path never enqueued it. So an external EPG client polling after
a thaw could see a stale timeline until the next incidental rebuild.

Fix: `IPlayoutTimeShifter.TimeShift` now returns the channel numbers whose cached
guide is stale — the shifted channel plus any channels that mirror it (the same
fan-out `BuildPlayoutHandler` already does) — and `TimeShiftOnDemandPlayoutHandler`
enqueues a `RefreshChannelData` for each on `CancellationToken.None` (post-commit
side effect must not be abandoned if the session token cancels).

Tests: handler enqueues a rebuild per stale channel (+ mirror + no-shift cases);
`PlayoutTimeShifter` reports source+mirrors on a shift, empty on Continuous /
zero-offset / active-unforced, and correctly seeds+shifts a never-watched playout.
Non-vacuity of the enqueue proven by a compiling negative control.

Docs: channels.md (On-demand resume section), domain-model.md, decisions.md
(scheduling.ondemand-guide-refresh-on-thaw). Per-viewer resume is out of scope
(single per-channel checkpoint; #68 says per-channel suffices).

Pre-push adversarial review, Low finding. The pool is process-wide and
lives for the life of the app, so a `Release()` not matched by a
successful `TryAcquire` would drive the count to -1 permanently: with a
limit of 1 that silently admits two unthrottled transcodes forever, which
is exactly the #529 QSV pool exhaustion with nothing in the logs to find
it by. Clamp at zero and record the breakage in `UnbalancedReleases`
rather than throwing — the sole caller releases from a `finally`, where a
throw would swallow the real exception.

The hammer tests now also assert `UnbalancedReleases == 0`, so the clamp
cannot mask drift it was added to survive.

Also moves the #536 index line to the end of the in-file decisions index
(it was inserted in the 2026-07-11 block while its body appends at the
end) — review nit, anchors were already correct.

timothy c0d3dab190 fix(536): enforce workAheadSegmenterLimit with an atomic slot claim [decisions-edit]
The slot check and its increment straddled an await: `Run` compared
`Volatile.Read(ref _workAheadCount)` against a DB-backed limit, and the
increment happened later inside `Transcode`. Every simultaneous tune-in
therefore observed `0 < limit` and started unthrottled — three concurrent
tunes on prod with a limit of 1 all ran with no `-readrate`. `Interlocked`
on the write side alone buys nothing when the read side is a separate,
earlier load (same class as #231/#250).

Extract the counter into a `WorkAheadSlots` pool whose `TryAcquire(limit)`
claims via compare-exchange, so the count never even transiently exceeds
the limit that the QSV hardware-frame pool sizing (#529) is derived from.
`Run` claims the slot and passes ownership in; `Transcode(bool
ownsWorkAheadSlot, ...)` derives `realtime` from it and releases it in its
existing `finally`, keeping acquire/release one-for-one. Acquisition stays
in the caller because `Run` sets `_state` from the outcome and `Transcode`
reads that state on entry to pick the item start time.

Tests hammer 8 threads x 20k rounds (a single Barrier round does not
collide on this hardware); the documented negative control reinstates the
check-then-act body and produces 15912 over-claiming rounds of 20000.

Also annotates the #350 decision record, whose "every concurrent tune-in
falls back to the throttled path" bullet described the intent rather than
the behaviour.

Three PR-only git-diff gates (ci-image-pin, docs-reminder, decisions-guard)
lived in docker-build.yml, which also triggers on push to main and v* tags.
Gitea dispatches a job as a runner task even when its `if` skips it, so on
every tag/main push these three were dispatched to the `small` lane just to
evaluate the skip. On the v26.12.0 tag those dispatched skip-tasks wedged in
act's setup phase and were killed by a runner restart mid-setup, reporting
`failure` (no logs) and reddening the tag's overall commit status even though
the release built, scanned, and deployed fine. The two identical-`if:` jobs on
ubuntu-latest (api-docs, format) skipped cleanly — the job logic was never the
problem; the kill lands in the dispatch window before any step or skip runs, so
tweaking the `if:`/step logic could not fix it.

Relocate exactly those three (pure checkout + git-diff, no container:, no image
pin) verbatim into a dedicated pr-checks.yml that triggers `on: pull_request`
only. Gitea evaluates a workflow's trigger before creating any job, so on a
tag/main push this workflow produces zero jobs: no dispatch, no kill, no
spurious red — for the whole class, permanently.

- ci-image-pin carries no pin and still greps docker-build.yml, where all five
  pin-bearing jobs (test/migrations/functional-e2e/api-docs/format) remain, so
  its validation is unchanged.
- None of the three are required checks (only Build & test + EF migration
  integrity are), so the status-context prefix change (Build ErsatzTV Image / ...
  -> PR Gates / ...) does not affect merges; the merge-consent hook reads the
  prefix-agnostic combined status.
- pr-checks.yml declares `defaults: run: shell: bash` (ci-image-pin uses
  mapfile / set -o pipefail).

Exhaustive triage of the closed tracker ersatztv#237, whose 111 comments
server-management#642 excludes from MemPalace ingestion (over the per-file
cap) and #520 removes from startup. #524's premise was that facts living only
in those comments would be orphaned and need curating into lifecycle records.

Result: zero decision-shaped orphans. Every durable decision-shaped fact is
already held by the decision corpus or by the individual issue the comment
narrates -- which the exporter does ingest. The tracker was always the lossy
copy, because the session protocol required the fuller closing record on the
worked issue first.

- docs/decisions.md: new active record docs.tracker-comment-retrofit, leading
  with the reusable rule (check the worked issue BEFORE the decision corpus)
  and the consequence for #642's benchmark row, which has no valid subject.
- docs/tracker-retrofit-triage-237.md: the audit trail -- method, per-comment
  classification of all 111, totals, and the one candidate raised and
  disproved (#497's Guids/Directors scope, stated more fully on its own issue).
- docs/handoffs/chicorytv-issue-queue.md: sweeps the two genuinely orphaned
  LORE facts the triage surfaced (e2e-local.sh readiness probe hanging on a
  reused config dir; troubleshooting playback cannot exercise channel branding).
- docs/README.md: index the new doc.

The claim is deliberately narrow: no *decision-shaped* orphans. The lore bucket
was classified but not coverage-checked, and it was not empty -- hence the sweep.

Second review returned MERGEABLE with one Medium and three Lows. Addressed all four:

- Medium: the save-time normalization had zero test coverage, so a later refactor
  dropping Math.Max would leave the suite green (the FFmpegState floor keeps the
  pipeline correct, hiding the regression until someone reads a stored 0 back).
  Added Create/Update_Should_Floor_QsvExtraHardwareFrames over 0, -8, 63, 64 and 128,
  plus Create_Should_Leave_Null_QsvExtraHardwareFrames_Null for the null-passthrough
  branch, following the existing QsvPreferNativeDecoder tests' seed/handle/re-read
  shape. Negative-controlled: reverting both handlers fails exactly 5.

- Low: the SPA `min` was cosmetic. Input does forward it to the DOM, but there is no
  <form> — save is an onClick gated only on validate(), which had no branch for this
  field, so a typed 10 submitted fine and was silently changed to 64 with a 200 and no
  message. validate() now rejects it client-side.

- Low: the warning fires at the top of SetAccelState, before we know whether the
  pipeline uploads at all, so a fully-hardware path could be told "using 64 instead"
  when nothing consumed either value. Reworded to "will use ... wherever frames are
  uploaded".

- Low: recorded in the decision entry that the save-time normalization is
  unconditional on hardwareAcceleration (a non-QSV profile's stored value moves too),
  and that a client PUTting 0 reads back 64 — a transform the OpenAPI description does
  not advertise.

Verified in production, not just asserted. Set prod's profile to 64 (operator-approved)
and drove the exposed pipeline myself via the troubleshooting playback API on an mpeg4
.avi, which forces software decode + hwupload:

  hwupload=extra_hw_frames=64,vpp_qsv=w=1875:h=1080   exit 0, speed 12.0x, 0 ENOMEM

Then the negative control on prod's own hardware, same command, only the pool differing:

  extra_hw_frames=64 -> exit 0,   8 segments, 0 ENOMEM
  extra_hw_frames=0  -> exit 244, 0 segments, 3 ENOMEM

which reproduces the six overnight production failures and confirms the fix.

Full suite green: 4095 .NET, 891 web.

timothy b27c950943 fix(529): address review — decision schema, #350 forward pointer, warning log, save-time normalization [decisions-edit]
Cold adversarial review returned BLOCKED on the documentation half. Addressed:

- The new decision record carried no lifecycle metadata block, taking the repo from
  82/82 to 83/82 and making it invisible to the by-key catalog lookup that #521
  established the same day. Added key/status/since/supersedes/superseded-by
  (ffmpeg.qsv-extra-hw-frames-floor) and regenerated docs/decisions/README.md;
  decisions_validate.py now reports OK with no legacy-unmigrated notice.
- The entry claimed to correct the #350 record but left that record untouched, so the
  stale "the burst is bounded" claim stayed authoritative for anyone resolving
  ffmpeg.hls-cold-start-burst. Added a forward-pointing correction note there (hence
  the [decisions-edit] token on this commit).
- The floor was applied silently. QsvPipelineBuilder.SetAccelState now logs a warning
  naming both the configured and applied value, because raising a deliberately small
  pool costs additional surfaces (64 NV12 1080p surfaces is roughly 190 MiB, 760 MiB
  at 4K) on memory-constrained iGPUs.
- Narrowed an overstated claim in the entry: 1..63 are untested, not known-bad. We
  raise them because the risk is a channel serving nothing, not because asking for
  less is illegitimate. Recorded as a deliberate over-reach with a stated cost.
- Corrected a factual error: SubtitleScaleQsvFilter also formats extra_hw_frames but
  is dead code with no construction site, so it is NOT covered by the guard.
- Config-vs-behavior mismatch: Create/UpdateFFmpegProfileHandler now normalize on
  save so stored rows converge on what the pipeline runs, and the SPA field carries
  min=64 rather than defaulting the display to 0. Render-time flooring is kept as the
  net that fixes existing deployments with no migration; the remaining gap for
  un-resaved rows is recorded as an accepted residual.
- Tests strengthened: pinned to the literal measured 64 rather than to the constant
  (so lowering the floor cannot quietly satisfy them), added a negative-value case,
  added a deinterlace-upload case, and replaced the narrow ShouldNotContain with a
  regex asserting EVERY extra_hw_frames occurrence in the command is >= the minimum.

Negative control re-run against the strengthened tests: reverting the floor fails 5,
with the build verified succeeded first. Full suite green (4086 .NET, 891 web).

Review finding that needed no change: the "single point" claim was independently
verified — no bypass exists, every FFmpegState construction routes through
MaybeQsvExtraHardwareFrames.

timothy bbd7356f81 fix(529): floor QSV extra hardware frames so an unthrottled read can't exhaust the pool
A stored qsvExtraHardwareFrames of 0 reached FFmpeg as hwupload=extra_hw_frames=0,
leaving the QSV upload pool no headroom for frames in flight through the filter graph.
Any input that is not throttled then exhausts it: the graph fails with -12 (Cannot
allocate memory), h264_qsv reports "Could not open encoder before EOF", and zero
segments are written.

Measured against the deployed FFmpeg 8.1.2, one real logged command, only the marked
tokens differing:

  readrate 1.05, no burst   + frames 0  -> exit 0,   14 segments
  readrate 1.05 + burst 2/4/8 + frames 0 -> exit 244, ENOMEM, 0 segments
  no readrate at all        + frames 0  -> exit 244, ENOMEM, 0 segments
  readrate 1.05 + burst 8   + frames 64 -> exit 0,   14 segments
  no readrate at all        + frames 64 -> exit 0,   14 segments

So the defect predates #350's cold-start burst: a work-ahead start takes no -readrate
and was already failing on a profile with 0. The burst removed the throttle on every
realtime session, turning an intermittent failure into a near-deterministic one, which
is how it surfaced. Input throttling was doing load-bearing allocation-bounding work
that nobody had written down -- which is why the FFmpeg-level benchmark in #350 and the
argument-generation tests in #516 were both green and neither could see it.

Fixed at FFmpegState.QsvExtraHardwareFrames, the single point every QSV upload site
reads, so one guard covers HardwareUploadFilter, HardwareUploadQsvFilter,
WatermarkHardwareUploadFilter, ScaleQsvFilter, DeinterlaceQsvFilter and
SubtitleScaleQsvFilter rather than six call sites that can drift apart. Values above
the floor are still honored.

Tests negative-controlled: reverting the floor fails exactly the three sub-minimum
cases, with the build verified succeeded first.

timothy 44199d3dba docs(spec): external channel-logo URLs become download-on-save
Design for reversing #511's render-time fetch: an external logo URL is
downloaded once at save time into the artwork cache (content-hash name,
same as an upload), validated against #511's decode budgets, and stored
so nothing downstream knows it came from a URL. Bad URL fails in the
editor, not at 3am. No refresh button — re-add the URL. One-time startup
migration converts existing URL rows; failures leave the row and warn.

timothyandClaude Opus 4.8 fb6720ea27 fix(521): de-dup 6 overlapped records; guard duplicate metadata blocks; exclude retrieval-eval; complete eval bank [decisions-edit]
- Exclude docs/decisions/retrieval-eval.md from active decision parsing
  (_NON_DECISION_FILES); its `## N.` eval-question headings were being
  miscounted as 7 legacy-unmigrated records.
- Add decisions_lib.metadata_line_count() + a decisions_validate guard
  that fails a record with more than one `key:` metadata line, so a
  stacked-metadata-block migration bug (which the parser silently
  tolerated by reading only the first block) can't recur unnoticed.
  TDD: test_duplicate_metadata_block_fails / test_single_metadata_block_passes.
- De-duplicate the 6 docs/decisions.md records left with two stacked
  metadata blocks (scan.getoraddfolder-db-lookup #488,
  scan.musicvideo-reconciliation #494, scan.jellyfin-mixed-content-library
  #489, iptv.logo-drives-bug-preset #67, ffmpeg.qsv-decode-encode-split
  #498, ci.small-lane-git-only server-management#639), merging the union
  of Signals/paths/issues/Mechanics from both blocks and keeping the
  richer Rule wording; rationale prose untouched.
- Fill in the deferred Q6b row in docs/decisions/retrieval-eval.md now
  that startup.parallel-orientation is active in docs/decisions.md,
  scoring it as a real active-vs-superseded question against the
  archived docs.queue-state-gitea-tracker.
- Regenerate docs/decisions/README.md via build_decisions_catalog.py.

timothyandClaude Opus 4.8 b1e7e08884 feat(521): rework decisions guard — lifecycle validator + narrow [decisions-edit]; header + CI rewrite [decisions-edit]
Retire the line-level append-only mechanic (ersatztv#303 H9) in favor of the lifecycle validator
built in Tasks 1-5. .claude/hooks/decisions-guard.sh is now a thin fail-open shim around
scripts/decisions_validate.py; .husky/pre-commit calls it for the structural (working-tree) checks,
.husky/commit-msg drops the old staged/[decisions-edit]-deletion block and keeps only the
Co-Authored-By check. The Gitea decisions-guard job is renamed "decisions lifecycle" and now runs
decisions_validate.py --base/--head (structural + body-diff + no-vanish) and
build_decisions_catalog.py --check (active catalog drift), with actions/setup-python@v5 added since
the bare `small` lane doesn't guarantee python3; the old 1800-line consolidation-floor step is
removed (replaced by the validator's aggregate active-corpus budget). docs/decisions.md's header is
rewritten from append-only to lifecycle framing (metadata schema, statuses, generated catalog,
archive, same-PR supersession); [decisions-edit] is re-scoped (not removed) to rationale-prose
edits/factual corrections only. docs/ci-cd.md's release ritual and hook/job descriptions are
rewritten to match.

Also fixes a pre-existing validator false-positive surfaced while sanity-checking against
origin/main: Task 6's #303 H9/H3 split (commit d09be57e) renamed the archived record's heading
away from the pre-split original, which the validator's heading-based relocation check reads as
"removed without an archive copy." Restored the archived heading to match the original text
(functionally unchanged — still status: superseded, same key) and updated the two prose
cross-references (migration-map.md, release-ci-governance.md) that pointed at the old anchor.

PR1 scope only (per brief): does NOT wire the kickoff-guard CI step or touch the
kickoff/README/select-queue docs — that's Task 8/PR2.

timothyandClaude Opus 4.8 458ab2111f fix(521): catalog _anchor collapses punctuation runs; single trailing newline
_anchor() mapped each space/hyphen to its own '-' without collapsing runs,
so the standard heading separator " — " (space, em-dash, space) produced a
double hyphen in every generated anchor. Since nearly every real decision
record heading uses that separator, this made the catalog emit a dead link
for essentially every row. Fix: after building the char list, collapse
consecutive '-' into one and strip leading/trailing '-' via re.sub, matching
how Goldmark/GitHub/Gitea sluggers behave.

Also fixed main() writing an extra trailing newline (want already ends in
"\n", then "+ \n" appended a second one) so docs/decisions/README.md now
ends with exactly one trailing newline; --check still compares via .strip().

Added test_anchor_collapses_em_dash_and_keeps_underscore to pin the anchor
behavior against the reported iptv.base_url case.
